Chapter 207: Lacking a military counselor (1)

“Of course I have no objections. I’ll leave it to old master’s arrangements.” Ximen taigao helplessly nodded. “Hall Master Ximen, cloud Ocean Hall will immediately pick two thousand men to form a guard Army and they will immediately enter the training ground for special training. After familiarizing himself with the black – clothed cannon and the handguns, he had to cooperate with Li Liao and the others. We need to form a force of four thousand elite soldiers, ready to fight at any time. ” Tang Wen said. “I heard from the old master that our main goal now is to do construction, so why do we need so many soldiers? We’re not going to war, are we?” Wang haiting asked. “I’ve decided to take it this time. ” Tang Wen said. “Take this, take what?” Wang haiting was shocked and asked. “Take the Linghai College’s move.” Tang Wen snorted. “Old master is going to lead troops to the front lines to fight against the sun nation?” Li Liao was stunned. “That’s right. ” Tang Wen nodded. “Wouldn’t that mean we’ve fallen into the Linghai Academy’s trap?” Wang haiting asked. “You can ‘t, old master. You don’t know the situation in the sun nation. The sun nation has been supporting a group of Pirates on the eastern coast. We will provide them with financial and material resources, including spirit pill cannons. In fact, a few groups of Pirates were basically the sun nation’s peripheral soldiers. If I’m not wrong, it was those few groups that first seized our Island, and the master behind them must be the sun nation. These Pirates were well – equipped, similar to the sun nation’s Army. Furthermore, after years of burning, killing, and pillaging, they were even more ruthless and fierce than regular soldiers. We’ve fought with them a few times and suffered heavy casualties. That’s because they have quite a few experts. ” Ximen taigao quickly said. “En, that’s because our forces have all retreated back to heavenly Rock Island and are mainly focused on defense. Unless the other party attacked the door and went ashore, they would not engage in close combat. If we’re talking about their ability to attack at sea, they’re much stronger than us. ” Wang haiting said. “Thus, we’ve been on the defensive all this time and didn’t dare to take the initiative to attack. However, they saw that we were trying to escape with our lives, and felt that even if they attacked us, they would suffer heavy losses. In addition, there weren’t many people living on heavenly Rock Island to begin with, so they couldn’t steal much property. Thus, they had only been fighting on a small scale, and had never attacked the island. If we were to send our own troops to attack them, it would be a completely different story. ” Ximen taigao said. “There’s no need to say anything more about this. I’ve already decided. ” Tang Wen waved his hand. “If we’re going to attack, we don’t even have a warship. What are we going to use?” Wang haiting was anxious. “All we have are fishing boats and merchant ships, so we can’t fight at all. The bow of their warship was sharp and covered with thick iron sheets, which made it difficult for even cannonballs to blow it up. Moreover, their ships are big and heavy, and they’re wrapped in iron. Our ships will fall apart if they crash into us. ” Ximen taigao said. “If we want to fight, we’ll have to ask the Imperial court for more warships. Otherwise, we’ll just be courting death. ” Wang haiting said. “I firmly object! I believe that my men are not willing to die. After all, they have a wife and children. ” Ximen taigao said. “Hall Master Ximen, this is where you are wrong. You’re now servants of the Tang family, so you have to listen to the master’s orders. Although I don’t want to go to war, old master must have his reasons for making such a decision. We should all support the old master and not throw a tantrum to oppose him. Otherwise, why would the Tang family keep you? Idle around every day? If you didn’t want to listen to the master’s orders, you should have refused to sell your bodies. ” Li Liao said. “Although I don’t want to fight either, I will obey old master’s decision.” Yan Beitian said. “I’ll follow master’s arrangements. ” Luo Yiwu said. “Father, just listen to master Cai’s arrangements.” LAN Yun ‘er said. “You can go back on your word now! I’ll give you a chance. ” Tang Wen said. “Well ...” Wang haiting glanced at Ximen taigao and ning Xiaotian. “What great elder? you don’t have any sense of responsibility. Why should the great elder of SuMei Island belong to you?” Yan Beitian sneered. “I didn’t expect Hall Master Ximen, hehe ...” Luo Yiwu laughed sarcastically. “If you want to leave the Tang family, tell me now. I’ll give you ten breaths. You can’t go back on your words after that. One ... Two ... Five ...” Tang Wen snorted. “Father, What should I do if you leave your daughter? “Old master has promised my daughter that once she steps into rank -2, I’ll be the young Madam of the Tang family. At that time, she would be a young Madam like sister Gu. Your daughter doesn’t want to be a servant all her life, much less a bed – warming servant girl. ” LAN Yun ‘er was so anxious that she was about to cry. “Yun ‘er ... You ...” Ximen taigao frowned and looked at Tang Wen, asking,”is Master’s words true?” “Our master never goes back on his word.” Luo Yiwu chimed in from the side. “I want to personally hear master say it.” Ximen taigao stared at Tang Wen. “LAN Yun ‘er, do you really want to be master’s young Madam?” Tang Wen asked with a serious expression. “I want to be like sister Gu.” LAN Yun ‘er pouted and looked at Gu hanyan provocatively. “Hehe, you’re not qualified yet. You’ll have to wait until you step into rank -2. Before this, you’re just a little servant of the Tang family, so you have to listen to me. ” Gu hanyan was very high – Profile. “I’ll definitely achieve rank -2. However, I’ve heard from the old master that you won’t be able to become the young Madam for the time being. ” LAN Yun ‘er retorted. “I’m the young Madam now, why can’t I be the young Madam?” Gu hanyan laughed out loud, feeling proud. “But you told the old master that you would only warm the old master’s bed after your family’s great enmity has been avenged. You’re not the master’s woman, you’re also a servant, how can you be the young Madam of SuMei Island?” LAN Yun ‘er said. “Old master, you even told her this?” Gu hanyan was furious, and she glared at Tang Wen. “We’re family. If you want to take revenge in the future, LAN Yun ‘er might be able to help you. So what if I know?” Tang Wen smiled. “My family’s revenge will definitely take place before you achieve rank -2. I’m not the old master’s woman now, but I’m still a big servant. You’re a small servant. I’m stronger than you.” Gu hanyan said fiercely. “The big servant is not as good as the young mistress. The young mistress is the master, hehehe ...” LAN Yun ‘er laughed happily. Ximen tai looked at him and couldn’t help but sigh. He cupped his hands and said,”it’s all up to master ...” “The cloud Ocean Hall will follow master’s arrangements.” Wang haiting said to ning Xiaotian. “From now on, recruit a large number of people to do construction work. Each labor fee will be increased by 10% every day.” Tang Wen said,”great elder, from now on, you and Li Liao will be in charge of the combat training of the soldiers.” “We’re just lacking a military counselor,” Luo Yiwu suddenly sighed. “Yes, it’s much better than us fighting blindly if there’s a comprehensive strategy from the military counselor. Moreover, the losses will be greatly reduced. ” Li Liao nodded. “Send someone to ask around and see if we can hire a military counselor.” Tang Wen said. He did not have any combat experience. Although he had the advantage in weapons, he had to have a military expert. Just then, Li Quan rushed in and said,”master, deputy commander Jiang has returned. He has already arrived at sumi Island and said that he has something urgent to discuss with you.” “Good, I was just about to talk to him about the war. Let’s return to somi Island immediately. Dongwen, the construction of heavenly Rock Island is about to start, and the construction of the cannons on the three islands of sumei has to be brought forward as well. ” Tang Wen hurriedly boarded the speedboat after giving his instructions. “Your dinghy is actually made of iron?” After Ximen Tagao boarded the boat, he was shocked. “It seems to be made of thick iron.” Wang haiting knocked on the speedboat. “Hehe, if we let an iron – shelled ship that is bigger than this ship be equipped with our black – clothed cannons and the handguns, wouldn’t it be much more powerful than the enemy’s warships?” Tang Wen said with a smile.
